Who is the Red Pawn?
One answer, from the author of a book pictured here yesterday—
"Breaking Dawn 's cover is a metaphor for Bella's progression
throughout the entire saga. She began as the weakest
(at least physically, when compared to vampires and werewolves)
player on the board: the pawn. She ended as the strongest: the queen."
An answer I personally prefer— the Saturday Night Live version.
